Cover art for All I Know lyrics by Screaming Trees

I'm kind of grateful to see interpretations here about a missed opportunity of love. A good friend of mine showed me this song back in high school. He used to say I was the only person he could send a Screaming Trees song. Not long ago All I Know came on the radio, I hadn't heard it in a while and it reminded me of this friend. The next week that friend passed away. In processing the grief of this loss a lot surfaced and I realized more consciously my feelings for him. Long story short, I think we both always had feelings, but life circumstances never allowed for more than a short fling one summer. We always kept in touch despite living in different cities. One of those people it doesn;t matter how much time passes, when you're with them it's like nothing has changed. He was the best. Now I look back with love and wonder if things had been different how good we might have been together. Could have been, should have been, mine...
